Team JFT2 Tiger Mountain Trail Run, Feb 9.
Four people showed up for the Tiger Mtn trail run today. Greg W, Jessi, Jodi, and MichaelH. The conditions were perfect.Warm enough to peel of the jacket. We ran for about 45 minutes before the substantial downpour hit us. That only lasted for about 5 minutes and then it subsided.
We ran the base loop around School Bus Trail, Wetland Trail, Brink Trail, and Swamp Trail before heading up toward the summit. We got fairly close to the summit (another 10 minutes) but hit a pretty long stretch of icy trail that turned us back to avoid injury. Run smart :) We got to the bottom and ran a second loop around the base to finish up in 1:50 (Jessi had another 40 minutes on her schedule and put in some extra loops around the base - GO JESSI!)
We look forward to more and more people on this run so that we can have more leaders at different paces. See y'all soon. Great training.
Team JFT2 Beginner Group ride: Sunday, February 3.
Jill is leading group rides for beginners every other Sunday. This is the third ride in this 8 week series. The first couple of weeks were spent introducing the team to one of Jill's favorite hills; one where she spent a lot of time as a beginner. This Sunday's ride was a nice tour of Mercer Island. This was the first Mercer loop for many of the riders. Following the ride the team got some pointers on triathlon transitions.
Team JFT2 Group ride:
Saturday, February 2.
Twenty four adventurous souls showed up for a 3 hour ride , led by Jill Fry. Here they are, meeting at the Newcastle Starbucks, getting last minute instructions about the ride. They warmed up through the May Valley area, did some hill repeats, followed by a cool down back through May Valley. It was a great day for riding!
Jill leads a team ride every Saturday morning, as well as a beginner ride every other Sunday.
